Books for children beginning to read
Books for children beginning to read In Essex Libraries we have lots of books that support children who are learning to read. We aim to complement the reading schemes that children use in schools by providing lots of well written and attractive books with simple text that children will enjoy reading for pleasure. These books help children develop reading skills and reading confidence. This document will provide guidance for staff and parents about which types of books will be appropriate for children at various stages of their early reading development. To identify which series will be most appropriate for the child you need to find out roughly how many words or sentences per page they are currently reading. Alternatively if the child is using the Oxford Reading Tree at school (one of the most common reading schemes used in Essex) you can ask what level they are on. There is often some overlap in the various series, so it may also be useful to look at the levels above and below where your child is reading as well Find the level or the number of words in the list below and you will be signposted to a number of appropriate series. These will mainly be found in the L and Y categories although some may also be in the P, S, and CNF (Children’s Non Fiction) categories For more information on the library categories please see this poster: A: If the child needs: B: If the child needs: C: If the child needs: D: If the child needs: E: If the child needs: F: If the child needs: G: If the child needs: H: If the child needs: I: If the child needs: J: If the child needs: K: If the child needs: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Wordless Books; First Words; Up to 5 words per page; Lots of picture clues One sentence per double page; Repetition of words One sentence per page One longer sentence per page 1-2 sentences per page 2-3 sentences per page 3-4 sentences per page 4 sentences per page 5 sentences per page 5-6 sentences per page 7+ longer sentences per page Pages 2 – 3 Pages 4 – 5 Pages 6 – 7 Pages 8 – 10 Pages 11 – 13 Pages 14 – 19 Pages 20 – 22 Pages 23 – 25 Pages 26 – 27 Pages 28 – 30 Pages 31 - 32 A: If the child needs: • • • • Wordless Books First Words Up to 5 Words per page Lots of picture clues Or is reading Oxford Reading Tree Stage 1 (Grey) see examples below Titles in the series • Who Is It? • Floppy Floppy • Six in a Bed • A Good Trick • Fun at the Beach • The Pancake Look on the library shelves for the following series: Big Cat Phonics – Level Pink 1a (Category – L) Other titles in the series • In a Pit • Nip Nip • Pam Naps • Sip it, Dip it, Tap it Comics for Phonics – Phase 1 (Category – L) Other titles in the series • Miss Polly Had a Dolly • Storm Friends Red Nose Readers - Red (Category – L) Other titles in the series • Happy Worm • Fee Fi Fo Fum • Jumping • Big Bad Pig • Help • Make a Face Books for Children Beginning to Read – February 2014 2 Tiddlers (Category – L) Other titles in the series • The Hungry Little Monkey • Harry and the Horse • A Cake for Tea • Alan and the Animals • Pirate Picnic • Oh, Jet!
